\"AnneLEXINGTON, Ky.\u2014In 1954, Anne Braden, a white Louisville journalist from an established family, helped an African American couple purchase a home in a white suburb.

\nIn those intervening years, Braden distinguished herself as one of the most courageous, committed activists in the civil rights era.

\nAppalshop filmmakers Anne Lewis and Mimi Pickering used interviews and archived film footage to share the tale of how Braden, sometimes by the sheer force of her personality, helped foment societal changes that slowly improved conditions for minorities.\n<\/p>\n

\n\u201cAnne Braden: Southern Patriot\u201d will be shown in Transylvania\u2019s William T. Young Campus Center Thursday, Nov. 7, at 7 p.m. Afterward, Pickering will lead a discussion of the film.

\nPickering is an award-winning filmmaker and director of Appalshop\u2019s Community Media Initiative. According to Appalshop, her documentaries typically \u201cfocus on injustice and inequity and explore the efforts of grassroots people to address community problems that frequently reflect global issues.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

\n\u201cThis film screening and discussion give us the opportunity to celebrate the accomplishments of two outstanding Kentucky women,\u201d said Meg Upchurch, Transylvania professor of psychology and coordinator of the Creative Intelligence Series. \u201cAs we consider this state\u2019s complex civil rights history, we can be proud of the work Braden did and the work Pickering continues to do to achieve justice for all members of society.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

\nEach year, Transylvania awards the Braden Prize to a student of women’s studies who has demonstrated substantive contributions to the field through both scholarship and activism on behalf of women.\n<\/p>\n

\nThe film screening is part of Transylvania\u2019s year-long celebration of the desegregation of its campus, Still Overcoming<\/a>. For more information about the event, contact Upchurch at mupchurch@transy.edu<\/a> or 859-233-8252.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
